“Tell him not to hold his breath,” Christie said about the Camden County Democrat during a press conference at West Windsor-Plainsboro High School North on Monday. “Seriously. I know Lou would like to get some more attention for himself. But I’m not debating Lou Greenwald. Please.”

Greenwald, who has been pressing for the governor to debate him on the merits of the Assembly Democrats’ 20 percent property tax credit plan (with millionaires’ tax included) versus Christie’s 10 percent across-the-board income tax cut, was quick to respond.

“If the governor thinks re-arranging his sock drawer is more pressing than working to boost property tax relief to working families, then that says a lot about his disregard for the middle-class,” Greenwald said. “Still, I’d be more than happy to come over to help him as long as we can have this conversation.”

Our only hope is that the governor did not discuss his messy sock drawer with Sofia Vergara, his table mate at Saturday’s White House Correspondents Dinner.
